Description

Geraint Sport is a cosy, bouncy yarn spun from superwash British Bluefaced Leicester (BFL). It has a rounded, 3-ply construction and is a good all-round, general purpose yarn.

Each 100 gram hank is approximately 270 metres of yarn. I would recommend a hand-wash with gentle detergent in hand-hot water in order to keep the colours looking their best, however the yarn is superwash. The yarn has been hand-dyed in a smoke-free and pet-friendly home, but no pets have had access to the fibre. Please be aware that, while I make every attempt to provide you with accurate photographs, the colours in them may vary from monitor to monitor.

Based at Pistyll Gwyn Farm in Carmarthenshire in West Wales, I produce hand-dyed British yarns. My yarns are generally British-sourced, other than silk and cashmere. All my yarns are kettle-dyed using single-pigment dyes, yielding rich, strong colours with lots of subtle detailing.
